Welcome to all my neighbors,Hoss you must be right next to me,i'm on Elliswoods rd. Yes the agway in bernville is very cheap with all their products and very freindly and helpfull. Pottstown roller mills carrys blaschak bulk and bags if you just want to try burning Blaschak.Theres a place in Elverson Pa. that bags their own coal,don't know the price or brand of coal they carry.I'm burning Direnzo nut,it's more money but burns very hot and way less ash then Blashack,price isn't everything as long as it heats your house.

Hi Dennis, we are close I'm on Miller Rd. I know The Roller Mills used to carry Blaschak which I liked but then they changed to Reading. That's when I found the place in Bernville that also carried Reading at $70 a ton cheaper which made it worth the trip. Did The Roller Mills change back to Blaschack Bagged? I just recently found out that Ace in Douglassville carries Blaschack Bagged so I was going to get some from there.

We were driving around and saw a no name convenience store with bags of Reading right next to the salt.
For all the 'sunset of coal' tales, bagged anthracite is showing up everywhere.

The guy at the roller mill said they had a problem with blashack bringing coal or vise versa so they got reading with no problem . I burned a load of the Lehigh over night and for some reason thought I was on schedule and woke up way late (before 7) and had a burner full of ash 95% burned. So back to wood today and start over tonight Was it the hotter coal that made me sleep longer or a brain fart on my behalf lol
